This person sounds like some of these ultra conservative posters that act as if they have never gone thru a devastating experience or had to ask for help. That's why when you volunteer or even take a job where you're helping people, I truly believe you have to be "called" to do that kind of work. You can't go into that kind of situation looking for a "thank-you" or any type of recognition. If you do, you'll tire and frustrate very easily. On the other end of the spectrum, Pastor Kee talked about people that were praising God for a bar of soap. The people I saw on Saturday night were grateful folks.

I'm sorry but I am sick of these people. One of my co-workers from our New Orleans office has joined our team in Houston and he just starts talking about how he's not moving back to New Orleans because he doesn't feel safe there due to all of the looting. :rolleyes: I just really wanted to tell him off. If you bring those same conditions to any city it will be the same thing. People have to eat, babies need diapers, and women need feminine products. I lived in New Orleans for four years and absolutely nothing happened to me, and we did some dumb things in college. I don't understand why some people just take everything they get from the media as true. Why can't they understand that the media has an agenda? |
Sorors and GCers in the area where Rita is supposed to hit...BE SAFE! :D

That fool who poasted about people not being greateful is full of it! :mad: Granted, I volunteered in Gulfport, but people were greateful, appreciative - if they didn't say it with words, their faces spoke volumes!!
I m sorry those poor helpless, shiftless negros didn't bow at your feet with thanks and praises like Fiddler from Roots. :mad: :o He did right to withhold his name |
CNN has reported that Rita is now a category 5. :(

Don't be mad at someone so limited in his world that actually demands angrandizement of his oh so wonderful feats that he decided to grace those poor lonely negroes with his outstretched arms in his onetime to assist ANYONE, EVER... That just shows you how engrained hate is. |
I have family in Houston and Galveston and luckly they already left before the traffic really built up. I pray that everyone's family and friend have found a safe place to stay until Rita passes. I'm suppose to return to New Orleans soon so I can go back to school (they are relocating to Baton Rouge and the cruise ship isn't there yet) and was wondering if they are still letting people in the city? I know they were expressing concern about the rain they might recieve and how it could cause problems and just wanted to know if its still a big concern.

If you live in New Orleans, you cannot reenter. You can contact the LA State Police or visit their website or nola.com for contact information.

Just wanted to clarify that it wasn't a post from me or anyone on GC as far as I understand. It was an e-mail forwarded to me. I never imagined that someone would have that perception and I found it interesting. I was just sharing and wondering :confused: if it was just me, or is this out of the ordinary? Kamryn |
